Actually, on the way to the room, Su Baiyi had been tossing and turning in his mind for a long time. In the novels and stories he had read, when there was only one room left in the inn, and a man and a woman who were only ordinary acquaintances had to stay in it, the plot would be more or less the same. Usually, the man would naturally give the bed to the woman, who would lie down with a bit of apology and shyness. Then they would turn off the light, and the man would sleep on the floor or on a long chair. Then, whether he slept on the floor or on the long chair, he would find it too hard and uncomfortable. The man would toss and turn, either on purpose or unconsciously, to show his discomfort. Then the woman would usually ask: Is it too hard and uncomfortable to sleep on the floor? The man would reply: It's fine, you go ahead and sleep. The woman would then say with a bit of apology and shyness: Come up and sleep together, we have two quilts anyway. Then the man would reluctantly hug his quilt and go up, and innocently ask: Do you want to put a bowl of water in the middle? The woman would cover her mouth and smile: No need, I trust you. After that, the water in the middle would naturally be gone. The two quilts would also become one... And the story that was supposed to happen would inevitably happen. The…
Su Baiyi stepped onto the Golden Wind, and was amazed by the sight before him. The ship had three decks adorned with red lanterns, and along the pathways were shops, taverns, and even gambling dens... It was like a miniature city built upon a ship. "Young master, please follow me." A girl in white clothes, holding a red lantern, suddenly appeared in front of Su Baiyi. She looked no older than fifteen, and her eyes were clear as water. "Who are you, little girl?" Su Baiyi asked. "My name is Nailuo, and I am your servant for this trip." The girl bowed slightly, "I will take you to your room now." "So each room comes with a servant? That makes the money worth it." Su Baiyi realized. The young girl named Nailuo smiled and shook her head, turning to lead them forward. "Of course, only esteemed guests of the Heaven Floor receive such treatment." "By the way, how much is the cheapest room? Ten taels of silver? Then the heavenly rooms must be at least thirty taels?" Su Baiyi asked casually. Nailuo covered her mouth and laughed. "You guessed the number right." "Then what did I guess wrong?" Su Baiyi asked again. "Not silver, but gold. Thirty taels of gold, to stay in a heavenly room." Nailuo said as she walked ahead. Suddenly, a burly man with a red face and a drunken breath rushed out from the side. He was cursing at someone, "This damn ship has taverns and gambling dens, but no brothels! How can I survive for…
Su Baiyi and Nangong Xi’er exchanged a glance, not knowing what this rich golden-robed young master was suddenly up to. But the young master was all excited. "Oh my, I thought this journey westward would be boring to the extreme, but I didn't expect to see such a beauty before boarding the ship. What is your name, fair lady? Where do you come from? How old are you? Are you married?" "Young master..." The middle-aged man who was sitting at the entrance of the ship collecting tickets called out helplessly. "I'm talking to the fairy, you don't interrupt." The rich young master waved his hand impatiently at the middle-aged man, then smiled at Nangong Xi'er, "Oh, I was rude. I should have introduced myself first. My name is Mu Nianhua, ranked seventh in Qingzhou, so the girls like to call me Seventh Young Master. I'm young and unmarried." "Oh?" Nangong Xi'er smiled, "Then these women by your side are..." "Oh, they are all siblings, siblings." Mu Nianhua didn't even blink an eye, completely ignoring the fact that those women's faces had changed, and his tone was still calm and natural. "Young master, we want to board the ship, but we don't have any money. Can you lend us some? We'll pay you back when we get to Yunmeng Prefecture. How about it?" Su Baiyi couldn't help but speak up. Mu Nianhua's eyebrows suddenly twitched, and he jumped back a step, looking surprised as if he had just noticed that there was a big man next to this fairy. He asked,…
Jie Qing was lying on the ground, recalling the finger strike he had just received. The Formless Finger of Doom was driven by pure yang energy, condensing all one's energy into one finger, emphasizing a domineering and overbearing style. But the finger strike from Su Baiyi just now was devoid of any skill, yet it overwhelmed him in an instant because of the vastness of his energy that far surpassed his own. "If he possessed such martial arts, how could he have been captured so easily?" Jie Qing muttered to himself. "Even the Punishment and Law Courtyard found you, the headache they had not been looking for, just to get this Su Baiyi." Wuya's voice came from the other side. "Do you really think it's just because he's Xie Kanhua's disciple?" "That's true." Jie Qing got up and walked to Wuya's side. "How are you?" "All my internal energy was sucked dry." Wuya gave a bitter smile. "I guess I'll need to rest for half a year before I can recover." "There really is a martial art that can absorb other people's internal energy in this world." Jie Qing turned around, ignoring Wuya, and walked forward. "This is getting more and more interesting." Su Baiyi had already taken Nangong Xi'er far away by now. He turned his head and saw another firework explode in the sky. He wondered, "Why do they like to set off fireworks at night in this place?" "That's not a firework, that's a signal." Nangong Xi'er looked at the firework and frowned slightly. "It's a signal…
As soon as Su Baiyi finished speaking, Wuya felt his inner strength flow faster into Su Baiyi's body. He finally couldn't afford to let his inner strength drain away, and began to resist Su Baiyi. Nangong Xi'er frowned and looked at Su Baiyi. "Trust me." Su Baiyi said in a deep voice. "Okay, I trust you!" Nangong Xi'er said loudly, and then actively sent her inner strength into Wuya's body. Wuya felt as if there was an iceberg and a volcano coexisting in his body at this moment, and his dantian was a mixture of cold and heat, feeling like it could burst at any time. "Since you want it, then I'll give you what you wish, all of it!" Wuya no longer resisted, and actively sent his inner strength along with Nangong Xi'er's part into Su Baiyi's body. At this time, a white monk robe flashed in front of them. "Amitabha, what kind of martial arts are you practicing?" Jie Qing sensed the anomaly in front of him, and stopped five steps away from them. "Save... save me." Su Baiyi stretched out his left hand to Jie Qing. "How can I save you?" Jie Qing smiled. "Just now Wuya and my senior sister competed in inner strength, I wanted to sneak attack this Wuya, but I didn't expect to be sucked by him, he now wants to transfer his inner strength into my body, and break my meridians." Su Baiyi explained. "Oh?" Jie Qing looked at the ferocious Wuya, "Is that so? Wuya." "Why don't you try it yourself…
"What are you doing?" Wuya sensed something strange on his shoulder, but after the previous fight with Su Baiyi, he did not think that Su Baiyi could pose a threat to him, so he did not stop his steps, and continued to run towards Fengdu Town. He would hand over Su Baiyi to the people of Thousand Inventions Courtyard there, and his mission would be completed. "Have you ever heard of a martial art called Absorbing Star Technique?" Su Baiyi forced a smile. Wuya frowned, but did not answer. "What about the Beiming Divine Art? Or the Disintegrating Harmony Palm?" Su Baiyi inquired further. "They are nothing but nonsense from novels and stories. There is no such martial art in the world. What do you want to say?" Wuya said coldly. Su Baiyi asked another question, "Why is there no such martial art?" "There are thousands of sects in the world, and there are various factions within each sect. Each faction practices different martial arts, and each person's internal energy is different. Except for the same sect's master and disciples, brothers and sisters who can transfer energy, if there are two different internal energies in one's body, they will surely die from broken meridians." Wuya said so, but he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and stopped his steps. "And internal energy is stored in the dantian, which is constantly changing and flowing, not fixed. The internal energy that is absorbed will regenerate, and the internal energy that is obtained is not eternal. When transferring energy between the…
“Xie Kanhua.” Wuya said softly. He remembered the scene he had seen when he was a child, when Xie Kanhua, with only a sword in his hand, broke into the main hall of Courtyard of Clear Sky alone, pressed his sword against the chief's throat, and took away a person. He had once hoped that that person could be himself. “Boss! We can’t hold on any longer!” Chiwu’s shout pulled him out of his memory. "This woman's sword is too damn powerful!" Shaque was also sweating profusely, his breathing getting heavier and heavier. “Monk, you are stronger than before.” Jie Qing smiled. “If I hadn’t spent some energy on the girl just now, you would have fallen by now.” Wuya’s pupils shrank slightly, and his long knife stabbed at Xie Yuling. Xie Yuling hurriedly raised his fan to block, but before he could fully extend it, Wuya's blade was already pressed against his throat. “Although you carry Xie Kanhua’s name, you are too far behind him.” After saying this, Wuya flipped his long knife and kicked Xie Yuling away with one foot. He turned around and rushed to Feng Zuojun. Feng Zuojun did not hesitate and punched Wuya in the chest. “Heavenly Dawn Cloud Realm? I’ve always wanted to try Feng Yuhuan’s sword.” Wuya said in a low voice. “You are not worthy!” Feng Zuojun shouted and punched Wuya ten times in the chest. “And you are too weak.” But Wuya shook his head and slapped Feng Zuojun away. Then in front of him, there was only Su Baiyi left.…
Xie Yuling and Su Baiyi sensed something was wrong from Feng Zuojun's tone, and quickly turned their heads, only to see that the monk had already stopped his attack, and retreated to the side. Nangong Xi'er also sheathed her sword, and turned around. In the distance, three figures appeared in the mist on the official road. "Boss, it seems someone beat us to the punch, huh." A man carrying a long knife walked out of the mist first, with a casual tone. "Yo, a monk and a woman, interesting." "Monk." Another man walked out of the mist, his voice sounding much more steady. "You look somewhat familiar." That Jie Qing Bu Jie Se had always maintained a calm smile on his face, even when he was fighting Nangong Xi'er with his fists. But when he saw these two people appear, his expression slowly froze. He frowned and said, "Why are they here?" "Who are they?" Nangong Xi'er had just fought with this monk, but for some reason, she didn't have much hostility towards him. But these two people who appeared now made her feel wary. "They are from the Feather Division of the Courtyard of Clear Sky of Shanglin Heavenly Palace." Jie Qing said solemnly. "This group of people are all named after birds, and they are notoriously difficult to deal with. These two are called Chiwu (Red Crow) and Shaque (Sand Sparrow), and they are both powerful and not easy to handle." "Courtyard of Clear Sky, huh." Nangong Xi'er sneered. "From your look, you are not on the same…
At the entrance of Fengdu Town. The man standing on the roof of the post station whistled, and a pigeon landed on his hand. He took off a message tube from the pigeon's ankle, opened it and said, "They are really skilled, they found out that we were waiting for them here, and deliberately took a detour. We have to chase them in the southwest direction." "How cunning." The man who had just been replaced by the Red Crow pulled out the long sword from the ground. "The people of the Thousand Inventions Courtyard are useless, they lost track of them and don't even know. Boss! Wake up!" "Let's go." The man who was lying in the haystack had already stood up at some point, slung a long sword on his shoulders, his hands casually hanging on it, looking sleepy and impatient. "Get to work." On the other side, after shouting "Good" loudly, Jie Qing suddenly put his hands together, standing straight like a Buddha. It seemed like a very ordinary movement, but it also seemed very extraordinary. The extraordinary part was that Su Baiyi found that the surroundings suddenly became silent, even the sound of the wind disappeared. "Is this your Immovable King?" Nangong Xi'er sneered. "They say that the Buddhist supreme skills require a mind free of distractions, mastering one skill thoroughly. Some people only practice one martial art for their whole lives. Up until now, you have used the Flower Plucking Finger, the Subduing Elephant Technique, The Mind, Intent, and Qi Harmonization Technique and the Immovable King,…
"On the matter of cursing Ning Qingcheng, I think we can agree." Nangong Xi'er reached out and shielded Su Baiyi behind her. "But on other matters, I'm afraid not." "What is your esteemed name, miss?" Jie Qing asked. "The Academy, Nangong Xi'er." Nangong Xi'er replied. "The Academy?" Jie Qing Bu Jie Se was taken aback. "The Academy resides in seclusion in the Shili Langdang Mountains and has always been reluctant to get involved in matters of the martial world. Why are you so interested in this Young Master Su?" "Su Baiyi has joined the Academy, and is now my junior brother." Nangong Xi'er said solemnly. "I am his senior sister, and naturally I have to protect him." "But I have to take him away. I promise you, miss, that I will keep him safe. How about that?" Jie Qing said sincerely. Nangong Xi'er sneered, "Why did you only curse Ning Qingcheng back then, and not beat him up?" Jie Qing was startled, and said helplessly, "That's because I couldn't beat him." "Yes, since you couldn't beat Ning Qingcheng, how can you protect my junior brother?" Nangong Xi'er asked back. "Miss, your logic is clear, but I can't beat Ning Qingcheng." Jie Qing stomped his right foot on the ground. "Can I not beat you?" A powerful aura emanated from Jie Qing's body, and pressed down on the carriage where Nangong Xi'er and the others were. Su Baiyi instantly fell back into the carriage, and was lucky that Feng Zuojun and Xie Yuling reached out to catch him before he fell…
